EXPECTATIONS NOT MET

On my search for the ultimate matte liquid lipstick I came across this brand. The name seemed convincing and the packaging is matte as well so I thought this is definitely it. I did not even test them. I took two, one is red and the other a burgundy color. Much to my disappointment they don’t have a matte effect. They don’t suit my complexion either so I have to use a lip liner along with them. They smell good but if you are looking for matte then I wouldn’t suggest them.

Good colour stain

I like this lip colour, it’s not very matte so if that’s what you after I would not recommend it. The liquid just never quite dried but it does have a really good lip stain. The colour is there even after a meal.

unsure

I love the texture of these lip-colours. They are creamy and easily applicable but all of them do not really blend well with my cappuccino complexion. I have to use a lot of lip liners to make them blend well – it’s SAD!! I bought the whole range even but I gave them away unfortunately…

Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lip Colour

I had really high hopes for this product after I read somewhere it was a good dupe for a Kylie lipkit shade, I can’t remember which one but I bought the dusty rose Revlon matte lip. I found it didn’t apply that well. It became streaky and didn’t dry down like I expected to. To be fair it was the first liquid matte I had bought and I expected it to be an unmovable matte like Kylie’s, so my expectations were high and probably unrealistic. I found the product just sat uncomfortably on top of my lips, never really settling or blending in. I wasn’t crazy about the smell but I do LOVE the colour. The dusty rose colour is perfect on my skintone and still remains one of my favourite colours. I would repurchase this product but I’m not going to stop wearing it.

Love! Love! Love!

I am always a fan of a good matte lipstick. I fell in love when I saw the range last year and recently saw that Revlon added more lovely colours. Revlon has 16 shades of this luscious and divine smelling matte lip colour.

What I really like about this matte lip colour is that with just one application, your lips are plump and full. It is not as drying as most matte liquid lipsticks. It does not portray a flat matte look, but rather a subtle matte colour. The shades are gorgeous and suit almost every skin tone.

One tiny problem that I experienced was that the colour tends to bleed on the lips but that is nothing a good lip liner cannot fix.

Perfect Matte

Revlon Ultra Matte Red. Applicator (brush ) glides easily. At first I was reluctant. When applied it looked like runny liquid gloss and after a few seconds, transformed my lips into a matte finish. Impressive, I didn’t have to retouch my lips for the next 6 hours.
